💰 Teens are invited to become the architects of their own financial futures! Building Your Financial House is a free, four-part financial literacy series that teaches teens how to budget, spend wisely, understand credit, protect their money, and begin building wealth—one room at a time. Every strong financial future begins with a solid foundation, so in this opening workshop, teens will explore needs versus wants, set SMART financial goals, learn the basics of budgeting and saving, and discuss the importance of building an emergency fund. Participants will begin their personal Financial House Blueprint Portfolio by designing the foundation of their own financial plan. 💰
